Panasonic HC-V750EB-K Full HD Camcorder -, Waited a long time after

Camera is light, compact, easy to use and produces good quality hd video. Battery life is slightly compromising but easily addressed by purchase of a second battery if you plan video coverage of an extended duration event.

Picture is amazing, and i love the slow motion function. Used this camera to shoot my first documentary, which is due for a tv broadcast.

Received this camera four days ago and i am still trying it out. The first thing i noticed was that the control was mainly based on icons on the lcd screen so there were less buttons on the camera body. This ‘firmware’ can be updated as there is provision to upload a new operating system. The camera itself is very well specd. The ‘selling’ points being a new lens system, slow motion and considerable wi-fi capability. I connected my phone using the nfc connecting system but i needed to re-load the app to get the latest version. Panasonic have located both the video light and photo flash inside the lens area. This means that a protective filter lens cannot be fitted when the lights are being used as the light reflects badly into the camera lens.

Brilliant professional picture quality and intuitive to use.

Panasonic HC-V750EB-K Full HD Camcorder – Black (24MP, 50x Intelligent Zoom, Wi-Fi, NFC) (New for 2014) : Perfect camera apart from the (solved) issue with the external mic buzz. This is a really good camera for the price – excellent quality and packed with so many features, and i was really surprised at just how small and light it was when it first arrived. It is best held with the strap tight over the back of the right hand and the left hand holding the extended screen – this gives you thumb and finger control for recording and zooming, and the left hand for adjusting settings via the touch screen. And i love the ability to have displayed a level indicator so you can see if you are filming off-level after a few beers. And the izoom of 50x is awesome and just so clear, or you can stick to 20x optical. One of the main reasons i bought this was to connect an external microphone so i could record interviews and the like, with a wireless or lapel mic. But i soon noticed that using an external mic caused a loud buzz on the recording. I spend ages tracing the cause of this, and then eventually discovered that if you power the camera with the provided 3-pin adaptor and you use an external mic – you get the buzz. So the solution is simple – record using the battery or plug the power lead into the usb port of a pc – and you get perfect sound. It’s odd that when you record with an external mic you get a warning message saying that this will “partially obstruct image in wide zoom” – whatever that means.

I can’t recommend this camera highly enough. A first rate camera with all the ‘muscle’ of it’s successors but without all the bells and whistles that i would never dream of using. I can’t recommend this camera highly enough.

Amateur to enthusiasts this ticks all the boxes. Researched this product for functionality but most importantly for ease of use (being technically challenged) and a real amateur so was looking for a camcorder that did the job without too much effort. This panasonic definitely ticks all the boxes for me, was able to use it straight from the box with brief scan of instructions. It’s not apple but it’s still intuitive to navigate with touch screen menu and, whilst advanced functions are available for more technically minded film enthusiasts, the basics are a breeze. I can proudly announce even managed to download onto laptop edit and rip (or burn?) to dvd.

Amazing camera let down by poor battery life. . The quality of the video from this camcorder is excellent. The depth of field, even with autofocus is also excellent. As is the 120 fps slow motion recording at 1080p. What is not excellent is the battery life. You get about 45 minutes from this camera on a full charge. A bigger battery costs a quarter of the price of the camera, and for whatever reason there are no after market, non branded batteries available for it. I opted for the “gomadic portable rechargeable battery pack designed for the panasonic hc-v750 / v750” which is an external battery pack that you can plug the camcorder into via usb and run off it’s power. I haven’t had a chance to use it enough to verify the battery packs usefulness, and it makes the use of the camcorder more cumbersome as well. In low light this camera is pretty amazing.

Auto settings are very good, low light levels can catch out most cameras. So far the camcorder has performed well. Beach shots and buildings in cuba were the holiday try out. I suspect any problems i have seen have been due to settings i have used. The camcorder has few settings to get your head round. Auto settings are very good, low light levels can catch out most cameras so give camcorder time to respond. Touch screens are useful but that would not determine the out come of which to buy. Transfering the images to computer were staight forward. Analyzing the pictures has shown a few things to chech out. As i said earlier i suspectmost image probs were due to me getting familiar with the camcorder.

It fits in a pocket and switches on quickly ready to film when you open the screen. I could use it straight away after only reading the introduction. Later the instruction cd explained easily how to get so much more out of the camera. The windshield on the microphone is a great benefit and seems to deal with most wind noise but i am also able to attach an external microphone with a “dead kitten” if the wind gets too strong. The 50x intelligent zoom is brilliant for wildlife filming. I would have liked an eyepiece viewfinder but the screen is bright enough for most situations. I was disappointed that it did not come with a memory card. Luckily i had a small one that i could use till i was able to buy a larger one.

Highly delighted with camcorder. First class arrived promptly its a shame it comes with no memory card, you have to order separately another £20 other than this small gripe perfect purchase, would recommend highly.

A a previous panasonic camcorder (hdc-h59) which had seen good service but its age was showing. This was a replacemant for a a previous panasonic camcorder (hdc-h59) which had seen good service but its age was showing. I wanted a camcorder that gave me the best quality at a reasonable price. So far this camcorder has not disappointed. Once set up it is surprisingly easy to use and the quality of the recording is second to none.

For a university student studying film and television production and an aspiring film maker, this camera has been fantastic for me. It was within my budget, is amazing quality and is generally better than the standard of cameras provided at colleges and universities. If you want to make youtube videos, or you have any video project that needs to be higher quality than what you would produce for just family videos, this is a great camera for youit’s light-weight, the settings are easy to navigate and the quality of the footage is amazing for the price. The built in microphone is much better than i’d expected and works well for video blogging indoors. The only issue i have found with this camera is that when playing back the footage on the device, the speaker is not very good, quite quiet and tinny, which isn’t much of an issue but i thought is was worth a mention. All in all, this is a great camera.

Excellent camera, rubbish manual and software. . I’ve finally managed to feed radio microphone output into the external socket so the sound is good too (internal mics are ok but are not near the videoed scene) zoom is good and smooth, though i’d prefer a bigger knob (for the zoom control)the manual is close to incomprehensible and avoids giving technical details. The bundled video handling/editing software (hd writer ae 5. 1) is pretty awful and i haven’t yet found how to convert the video files using other software, so i’m stuck with hd writer’s fuzzy mpeg conversions if i need to make a dvd.
